[Operation]
DANGER
Prohibited
• During operation, NEVER enter the dangerous area of the robot.
Otherwise, you will be injured seriously.
• DO NOT leave in the working range any machinery or materials
which will hinder the operation. If the equipment went wrong, a
person nearby will be injured or involved in an accident.
• Anyone other than the operator MUST NOT approach the
equipment. Should he negligently touch the dangerous part of
the equipment, he will get injured or involved in a serious
accident.
• NEVER perform an inappropriate operation which is not described
in the instruction manual. Otherwise, the equipment will start by
mistake, resulting in personal injury or serious accident.
Danger
• If you feel even a little that you are exposed to danger or that the
equipment works abnormally, press the EMERGENCY stop
pushbutton switch to stop the equipment. If the equipment is
used as it is, you will be injured or involved in a serious accident.
When this happens, ask our after-sale service agent for repair.
• During operation, be sure to close the equipment cover. Should
the cover be opened during operation, you will be struck by an
electric shock or get injured.
• Only a well-trained and qualified person is allowed to perform the
operation. Should the equipment be operated improperly, it will
start by mistake, causing a personal injury or serious accident.
• If the equipment has malfunctioned, turn the power off, identify
and remove the cause of the abnormality, maintain the peripheral
equipment and completely restore the malfunctioned equipment.
Then start the equipment at a slow speed. If the equipment
starts, leaving the abnormality, you will be involved in a serious
accident.

STARTUP MANUAL
CAUTION
Prohibited
• DO NOT change the data of the system structure file. Otherwise,
the robot will move abnormally, resulting in damage or an
accident.
Mandatory
• In principle, teaching operation should be performed outside the
dangerous area of the robot. If it should be performed inevitably
within the dangerous area, strictly observe the following matters.
(1) The teaching operation should always be performed by two (2)
persons. One person performs the job and the other person
watches outside the dangerous area. Also, both persons
should try to prevent mis-operation with each other.
(2) The operator should do the job in an attitude ready to press
the EMERGENCY stop pushbutton switch at any time. Also,
he should perform the job at a position from which he can
evacuate immediately at the time of an emergency after
confirming the robot working range and shields nearby.
(3) The supervisor should keep watch on the job at a position
where he can see the entire robot system and operate the
EMERGENCY stop pushbutton switch at the time of an
emergency. Also, he should keep anyone from entering the
dangerous area. Unless the operator or other person follows
the instructions of the supervisor, an accident will be caused.
• If an abnormality has generated or the POWER LED lamp on the
control panel remains off after the main power switch of the
equipment was turned on, turn off the main power immediately
and confirm the wiring. Otherwise, you will be struck by an
electric shock or a fire will break out.
• Unless the robot operates toward a designated direction at
manual guide, turn off the servo power. Otherwise, the robot will
be damaged or you will be involved in an accident. When this
happens, call us at the after-sale service agent.
• Pushbutton operations on the operation panel and teach pendant
should be confirmed visually. Otherwise, you will be involved in
an accident due to mis-operation.
• After the power is turned on, be sure to reset a program to start
an automatic operation. If the program is executed continuously,
the robot will interfere with the peripheral equipment, resulting in
damages or accidents.

– 7 – STE 71282
STARTUP MANUAL
CAUTION
Mandatory
• Before operating the equipment, perform the following inspection.
(1) Make sure that visual appearance of the robot, controller,
peripheral equipment and cables is in the good condition.
(2) Make sure that no obstacle stands in or near the working
range of the robot and peripheral equipment.
(3) Make sure that the emergency stop and other safety devices
operate properly.
(4) Make sure that no abnormal noise or vibration is involved in
the robot operation.
If the above prior inspection is skipped, the equipment will be
damaged or you will be involved in an accident.
Caution
• The speed of test operations is initially set at 25 % of the
maximum robot speed.
• The speed of automatic operation is initially set at 100 % of the
maximum robot speed.
